I have mixed feelings of this week. It was both good and bad. I have been sick all this week as well. I thought I was getting over it, but then I was down again. I've revamped my drug supply again and I'm picking up a prescription today. So I've got drugs. We live next to a a senior missionary couple that is a doctor. He is the doctor that is over the whole central United States missions, so I got the hook ups. Though I've been sick up and down , I refuse to cancel any appointments. I just fake my way through it. That's whats been good about this week. We have been able to teach a lot this week despite being sick.
We found and contacted some new less actives. We ended up teaching our investigator Tony twice this week. We need to keep working with him to get him to full understanding and belief of the restoration and then he will be golden.
Christmas is coming up. So the plan is that we have sacrament meeting at 11am and we will skype like 1 or 2pm. We found a house that we can go to. They'll also feed us lunch. Pretty sweet. So that's the plan.
I also haven't gotten any packages yet, but I've been told I have mail. So hopefully.
The weather here has been pretty cold, going into the negatives. We were biking home on Friday night in a blizzard (pictures) when some members saved our butts by giving us a ride when they saw us biking. Nobody else is stupid enough to bike in that, so they knew it was us. I think the cold got to me, because I was really sick that night, but lived.
While we were waiting for our ride to church yesterday, we found a sled and Elder Hendrick went sledding in his suit.
On Wednesday we had Zone Conference and it was really good. A Brother Jacobs spoke to us and he was amazing. He is from Utah and he is some high up guy in institute. He told us about the levels of Christmas.
Level 1: Santa Claus
Level 2: Silent Night
Level 3: The Adult Christ
Make sure you are on Level 3
I think we will be emailing Saturday the 24th next time because things are closed on the 26th so see you then.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,
Elder Wheelwright.
